Description

Must have permission to enroll in this class that is a mixture of advanced Pointe Prep and Pointe I. This class focuses on building the muscles and specific technique necessary for pointe. Students must also be enrolled and attend an additional ballet class. Bone development is taken into consideration when placing students en pointe so dancers must be at least 13 years old before going en pointe. Students should expect to participate in 1-4 sessions of Pointe Prep before being considered for Pointe. It is important to note that every dancer is different and that proper bone development and muscle strength will be a main factor in the placement decision over age or participation. Under no circumstance should students purchase pointe shoes until instructed to do so. Dancers should wear pink ballet shoes (or pointe shoes, if determined by instructor), leotard, skirt or dance shorts, tights, and hair must be worn in a bun. (KD)
